GrpcDemo

Demonstrates concept of using gRPC client and server in an Elixir project. Demonstrates simplicity of setting up dependencies and the proto file.

Dependencies: Cowboy, Gun, Ranch, Cowlib

Building proto files yourself: see instructions at https://github.com/tony612/grpc-elixir

Try it yourself

Create connection

{:ok, ch} = GRPC.Stub.connect("localhost:1111")

Create request and call the stub, it should connect the call to remote server implementation in GrpcDemo.Server.

req = GrpcDemo.GRPC.HelloRequest.new(i: true)
ch |> GrpcDemo.GRPC.Api.Stub.hello(req)

Result should be: {:ok, %GrpcDemo.GRPC.HelloResponse{i: true}}
